Functional properties of neurons in middle temporal visual area of the macaque monkey. I. Selectivity for stimulus direction, speed, and orientation
TLDR
The presence of both direction and speed selectivity in MT of the macaque suggests that this area is more specialized for the analysis of visual motion than has been previously recognized.Abstract:
1. Recordings were made from single units in the middle temporal visual area (MT) of anesthetized, paralyzed macaque monkeys. A computer-driven stimulator was used to make quantitative tests of sel...read more

Human area V5 and motion in the ipsilateral visual field.
TL;DR: Non‐invasive spatial and temporal imaging studies in man reveal that ipsilateral V5 is activated by motion signals transferred from contralateral V5, implying that signals related to visual motion are transferred from one V5 to the other through two segregated pathways.

A Fast Biologically Inspired Algorithm for Recurrent Motion Estimation
Pierre Bayerl,Heiko Neumann +1 more
TL;DR: This investigation transfers a neuroscience model of cortical motion computation to achieve technologically demanding constraints such as real-time performance and hardware implementation and provides a tool for modeling investigations to achieve acceptable simulation time.

Multifocal Attention Filters Targets from Distracters within and beyond Primate MT Neurons' Receptive Field Boundaries
TL;DR: This work found that when the attended objects passed through or nearby the receptive field, neuronal responses to the distracter were either decreased or remained unaltered, demonstrating that attention can split into multiple spotlights corresponding to relevant objects while filtering out interspersed distracters.

Occipitotemporal activity elicited by viewing eye movements: a magnetoencephalographic study.
TL;DR: There may be specialization within regions of human cortex previously thought to be sensitive to motion in general, particularly in the right hemisphere of human MT/V5 and its surrounds, according to MEG data.

Pupil response triggered by the onset of coherent motion
Arash Sahraie,John L. Barbur +1 more
TL;DR: The experimental findings show that the onset of coherent motion triggers systematic constrictions of the pupil that cannot be accounted for in terms of a pupil light reflex response, and are labelled Pupil motion responses (PMRs).

Receptive fields and functional architecture of monkey striate cortex
David H. Hubel,Torsten N. Wiesel +1 more
TL;DR: The striate cortex was studied in lightly anaesthetized macaque and spider monkeys by recording extracellularly from single units and stimulating the retinas with spots or patterns of light, with response properties very similar to those previously described in the cat.

Silver Staining of Myelin by Means of Physical Development
TL;DR: For staining myelin with silver a physical development technique has been devised that can render visible the thinnest fibers in various animal species, including fishes and reptiles, even in the early phase of myelination and may be applied to both frozen and embedded materials.
